This fantastic book is written in the voice of 15-year-old Christopher Boone, who not only is trying to solve the mystery of a dog killed with a garden fork in his neighborhood - he is autistic, gifted at maths and not fond of the colors yellow and brown. Author Haddon shows a remarkable connection with and compassion for the autistic experience, and you will love every minute you spend in Christopher's company.
